Customer Reviews for Amerimax Home Products Hoover Dam 3 ft. Gray Metal Mesh Gutter Guard

These fit my gutters well, even with my Steel rook shingles. I only installed them on the side that accumulates pine needles in my gutter. I was happy until we just had a 3” snowfall this spring. The icicles only formed where I installed these. I even installed a short 1 foot piece around the corner and you can see in the pictures that it caused icicle formation. The icicles caused dripping and water on my front entrance, no good. I may leave them up for the summer and take them down in the Fall

These keep the leaves out but they also keep the water out! Once installed, it's like you have no gutters at all and water pours freely over them. I guess its back to cleaning the gutters because these create more problems than the solve. Useless!

Super easy to install. Very sturdy metal. Excellent overall quality and value!

Installed these on my lower level gutters and spent $500 at Home Depot The quality is good, but the design is poor. If you are in an area with long pine needles (e.g. Austrian Pines) or "helicopter" or "whirlybird" seeded trees (e.g. Boxelders) they will stick in the slots and render the guards useless and require you to clean them in the fall or let rain water run off or ice to build up and create ice build up and ice dams. Hope this saves you wasted time and money.

Have had them on for one year, and of course this year is the year maple trees are bad. These leaf guards are perfect at catching them. I have maple seeds sticking out in masses along all the gutters on the front of my house. They work fine for regular leaves, but with maple trees, I'm now having to hire someone to come clean my gutter guards, which kind of defeats the purpose of them.

Not certain how this would work with the slope of my roof, I installed this product on the easier to reach gutters. This was very easy to install. Even with my little modification and going up and down an 8ft ladder, 8 pices took me about 30 mins. After installing the first two pieces I didn't like the gap between pieces and they didn't sit flat and flush. So I clip about 1/2 inch off the front so the pieces could be overlapped. I bent the ends over and crimp them against the gutter for a better finish. The true test was in a heavy downpour a few hours later. No waterfall. Leaves out, water in. Works like a charm! Now it's on to the high gutters.

the gutter cover is high quality metal and is very wide. It installs under the roof shingles, not sure if that is good idea for some users compare my pic to the product pic, it fits solidly in the front of the gutter w/o screws. unfortunately the holes are the perfect size for maple seedlings to stand up right. They have been like this for two weeks so they are not getting blow away by the wind, I'll give it another two weeks. I also noticed that the ice and snow would melt outside over the gutter. takes all the water coming off of the roof.

Well made, durable, excellent fit and finish. What I like most about these was that there was no lip along the outer edge where debris can build up (like the cheaper plastic ones). HOWEVER IF YOU HAVE MAPLES, it holds onto the seeds for dear life. This is my Gutter AFTER I got up on a ladder and blasted it with my leaf blower. Apparently the almond-shaped slots are like a key hole for maple seeds. They drop in and either have to eventually erode or be handpicked (which ain't gonna happen. So yeah, overall, very impressed with the the product but just be aware of this drawback which may affect some of you out there.

Straight forward installation. It has rained in torrents with no overtopping. Much cheaper to do it yourself versus the commercially installed products. Took about 4 hours to install 36 sections.

Works very well at keeping leaves, gunk and pigeon poop out of the gutter and down spout. It didnt fit my gutter perfectly with the ridge to keep it in place snugly so I had to just lay it there without securing, that's why only 4 stars.

See photo. The gutter gaurd carries some of the water over the gutter. This product looks like it should work great. It just doesn’t.

Easy to install; however, those with a bit of anxiety will fret because the joints are uneven and will not match perfectly unless one overlaps each piece (I did not overlap). The product is easy to install ( I did not use screws - why would you? - to attach to the gutter lip), the product functions exactly as stated and at present is in fine shape. Gutterguard quoted 2700.00 for the 126 feet of gutter I have (yeah. do the math on that). This product was about 230.00 give-or-take a buck or two. Well worth the money!!

Replaced mesh stainless covers because the Hoover Dam covers had a higher water intake rating. Installed the H. Dam guards in a 6' section with two valleys of water pouring in right before a heavy downpour and it handled it with no overflow. Still have to sweep off the pine needles which is the case with all gutter guards.

On previous plastic product, I had small "ball" particles off tree penetrate the guards. This metal guard had smaller holes and appeared more durable. I was concerned that the small particles could still penetrate between guard sections because of possible flexing of the guard pieces; I did not actually see this happening. However, I snipped a corner of each piece so I could overlap about a quarter of an inch. Otherwise, I am satisfied with the product,.

works great for keeping the pigeons from nesting in my gutter

All metal, no plastic 3 foot section. I trimmed the sections a bit with tinsnips, but now reside perfectly in the lower gutters of my two story house.

Gutter guards wrath were the wrong size

Good quality, easy to install. Anxious to see how they perform over the rainy period.

Great product made extremely well. Easily installed. Finally resolved an clogged gutter issue. highly recommended.

So far I’m happy with the ease of install and flow. I’ve heard a lot of people state that water would go over top of gutter guards. I’m not seeing this so far.

After installing these, as others have reviewed since, the water flows right over. Also, in the winter time the metal causes any water to freeze on top of these covers causing ice sickles. Great concept and look like a good option, but they are not. Don’t waste your money.

This product is strong, durable, and easy to work with and to apply
